The art car parade is a pretty big deal here, draws a crowd. There is even an art car museum here.

i have the general lee horn. five horns in total

i mounted a bracket from each end of the poles under the hood....this way all five are facing the grill and are out of the way...

i have pictures but i still dont understand how this forum works yet... seems very inconvenient compared too most forums.

I have a Stebel compact horn & love it ... I also upgraded my 2 stock horns for 2 louder horns so, all in all I run 3 horns. The 2 other horns are just a bit bigger than my stock ones and are louder. But, with the combo of all 3 it sounds great! Sounds like a train horn but not as loud as one. Those Stebel compact horns are pretty much like the Wolo compact horn but the Wolo has less db. I wanted the highest db. rating I can get without using an air compressor. I believe the Wolo one is 118db. The Stebels compact is 139db. I recall seeing a compact horn like Stebels at Advanced Auto Parts & I noticed it said 139db. Those horn usually run about $35 to $50+ for them compact horns & its well worth the money for the way it sounds. 100x better than stock & will turn heads when you blast it. I don't know how it sounds just as is but with the 3 horns I run... It Rocks!!! It's one of my favorite upgrades on my jeep but, I still rather have a true train horn that runs off of an air compressors. I would get them but, I have no room for the compressors & don't want the horns to be clogged off with mud when I offroad.
All I can say is .. I Love My Horns!!!

Stebel makes a new 300Hz single tone version, that has the low, loud tone of a semi. (a much deeper tone than the dual, higher pitch version) But apparently they are sold out. 2 of these under the hood should be sufficient for the Atl, GA traffic. Anyone know where to get one? I mean 2 ?!?

I bought one of these first. It seems like good quality and is about twice as loud as the stock horn and much deeper. Also much deeper than the Wolo, but only monotonal. I got mine on Ebay for <$40 brand new, so I don't know why Jeep can't put this in every jeep, probably for less than $10, but every $ counts I guess.

Anyway, I upgraded to a triple tone train horn from Air Horns of Texas. Great customer service. The horns fit behind the rad no problem on my JK and I tucked the compressor behind that (idiotically located) wub woofer in the back with a quick-connect in case I ever really need the room. It's a bit too loud on the horn switch so I added a second valve that I can control to provide a softer sound, which is still way louder than the stocker. I just about crapped myself when I accidentally set off the factory alarm once though...

I'll post the complete explanation and pics when I get to 50 posts on the site, next year sometime I guess.

If you post pictures, use the IMG tag and post it. Somebody that has 50+ posts can make it click free for you.

Was this plug and play? Same harness or did you have to splice? Anyone who has the older TJ horn in newer TJ do they use the same harness?
